Presumably, anybody except Jack & Gladys Furnish (if Elton is a faithful spouse)
Is he the one who went down with his ship in the Great War ?

Women and children first!

Ah - the Drill from HMS Birkenhead.
And that Birkenhead gave some Birkenhead to a Playmate who is no longer with us, & will be a celebrity the rest of his life due to it.
Oh, FYI, the Son you don't want going down is Clay Aiken from an STD, who covered that song before his losing Congressional run.
The Titanic learned nothing from The Birkenhead, and we seem to be at a place where nobody seems to learn from history either.
Women and Children First...
I disagree. I agree with Patton Oswalt that people liked a lot of what our first Black President did, & wanted to see just how awful the opposite could make things.
Also, women & children (mainly Barron in the latter group) are all of Trump's family I don't want to ban.

Out of the mouths of cartoon characters![]()
Don't forget 'I Needed You', no never mind, forget it. The Royal Guardsmen was not one of those bands that had great B-sides. I may still have that 45 in a box somewhere.
Cartoon characters often speak in greater truths - the Peanuts characters did.

Some people are cartoonish without any help from an illustrator.

Bugs Bunny was the most versatile cartoon character ever. He taught us everything from opera to hunting and space travel to how to do drag.

"I knew I shoulda taken that left turn at Albuquerque."
A man leaves home on foot one evening, makes three left turns and arrives back home to find two masked men waiting there. Who are they?
Just one more 6, and it would be the beast. Two threes won't do.
If the beast gets upset, does its number change to 999?
Well, it's one for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Now go, man, go!

Go West, young man.

I'd go West in my Blue Suede Shoes, but they don't match my orange jumpsuit.
